I'll bring a laptop, ralph will as well and possibly others too. So in the worst case scenario we just display a few laptops to show off CentOS on laptops. (Do make sure that most functionality you want to show works and is tested on your laptop !)
I'll bring my laptop with me too.
What are we going to demo ? CentOS, as an Enterprise Linux has many practical uses: servers, appliances and desktops. Servers is hard to show off except for management/reporting applications, appliances could be VOIP/VDR setups, desktops would be the compiz setup with interesting GUI applications.
IMHO It would be nice if we can have a machine with a VT-X enabled CPU at the booth, and demo Xen with CentOS 4.5 and 5 domUs, as well as some OS that requires HVM. Together with our upstream we seriously have a lead in that area, and it's a hot subject.
